Fantastic Suite Experience!

equipped kitchengreat balconyunderground parkingtricky policy
The fully equipped kitchen was definitely a plus, and the balcony was great. The included underground parking made it easy to explore. I really enjoyed being able to walk around the area!
I would say that the hotel gift certificate had a tricky policy. It was confusing to see that it was valid, but I still could not redeem it .

The restaurant below the hotel offers mussel dishes (I loved them!) and seafood pasta, so delicious. The bar serves drinks, and I found the staff to be friendly and cute.
